Silver Wings, Footlights and this one are some of my favorites. Still not happy with him taking ol Waylon’s money in that card game though. 
I bet there would have been an extra hit or two for both of them had the circumstances been different.

Now playing Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti (1975)
Currently listening to My Bloody Valentine ~ Loveless.
Two of the best: Stephane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt, simply swinging on Fats Waller's classic "Honeysuckle Rose." Enjoy!
Now for something completely different, how about some definitive Barry White?
Here's an interesting fact: Mr. White was once the A&R (Artists & Repertoire) man for Del-Fi Records (Ritchie Valen's label) where a young Ms. Bobbie Gentry tried to sell him a song titled "Ode to Billy Joe."

Just picked up tix to see Neil at a new amphitheater only 15 minutes from the house. Can't wait.
Steve Roach - Sanctuary of Desire, from Sanctuary of Desire (2023). If you can look past the overtly New-Agey title, the reward is a delightful 25 minute trip through 80s sequencer/synth land.
Tom Lehrer in Concert- 1967 in Copenhagen. On PBS.
I get a kick out of his performance of The Elements -
Currently listening to Santana ~ Caravanserai.
